Along the way, it's probably a good idea to explore some of the side competitions available to you, such as downhill races, street contests, and the unfortunately titled tranny contests (riding in pools and such). Throughout the game you'll run into pros, and if you're able to pass the challenges they throw your way, you'll gain access to their gear and sponsors. You can also befriend a few buddies who will help you take care of security guards, remove skate-stoppers, and drain swimming pools whenever you call them.
objects can be pushed and pulled around the world to create new lines or even entire new spots. The cool thing is that while you're able to use them for your own purposes, you can save and upload your spots online for other people to mess around in. Last time out there were pre-defined Own the Spot challenges. This time, it's your spot that you're challenging others to try and claim.
Changes to the environment, big or small, will stay put in the game regardless of how long you play, with the exception of things that would essentially break the world, like putting a picnic table in the middle of the road. If you move something, it'll stay there, and just like in the real world, you don't need to manually save anything -- it just stays.
One last pretty cool thing that I got a look at is the new Goofy vs. Regular competition variant in the game. Here, two teams of three skaters compete at the same time in a total points competition. It can get pretty crazy as all six skaters are running the park at the same time, and being that the two teams start on opposite sides and are basically encouraged to make a break for the middle, it starts off almost like an old fashioned jousting event. The cool thing here is that since you aren't on your own, you can sometimes count on your teammates to help you out if you're having a bad session.
